Best things for teething?

Hi all, I've tried dentinox, bonjela, nelsons teething granulas, calpol and the usual teething rings etc. Nothing seems to be working for my 7 month old who I think is cutting his first teeth. All he wants to do is suck/gum me! It's as if he's constantly trying to give me a love bite. Sleep is even worse than usual and he seems more grumpy during the day. What worked for you? And how long did the teething hell last for? We've been nearly 2 weeks and still no teeth to show for it all. Thanks in advance.

Calgel is quite good. Baby ibruprofen worked better for us than calpol with the teeth, I think because it is also anti-inflammatory. Anbesol is also really good but I'm not sure about age requirements with that one. Different things tended to work for us at different times tbh.

Ibuprofen was definitely what worked best for us, and you can alternate that with calpol if you need of take the edge off it in esteem doses. Then the teething granules were good to stop him being grumpy, and anbelsol (liquid) is amazing. Mine was quite bad with his teething but those things definitely helped. I was also told damp cloth, flanel or muslin in the fridge for a bit, but didn't get that idea till he was over teething.
